Christian Devotional – May 3, 2018

What does it mean to cling to something? I think if things like static cling or a baby animal clinging to its mother. But what is rhe psalmist referring to when he takes about clinging in Psalm 63?

My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
Psalms 63:8 NASB

The phrase that comes to mind is to hold on with all strength and all hope. Everything that we are is focused on grasping onto something. Do we hold to God that way? Are we so focused on knowing him better every day so that we can hold on to him better every day? He is the one who sustains us and all our hope is in him. We need to cling to him.
